Their prices have really gotten out of control over the last several months. I've seen tangs almost doubling in price or more since last year (Hybrid PBT used to be $150 and I just bought one a few weeks ago at $350). Unfortunately for a lot of the rarer stuff WYSIWYG, there aren't a lot of great options. Unfortunately for me I live in the middle of nowhere and the only local pet store is Petco (which I refuse to buy livestock from).
The increased free shipping price, store credit and box fee are all nuisances, but the sharp livestock price increases and if no frequent coupons, that might be it for me and them. Especially if they start getting rid of the 14-day guarantee. I've spent thousands with them and have gotten several dud fishes (which have been more and more frequent over the last year). It now seems like I might have gotten the last great deal a few weeks ago when I bought a male Feminus wrasse with 14-day guarantee and 25% off.
